Tennessee Quotations
Tennessee Quotes from:
-
District Quotes
We started four sophomores that year and we played in a national tournament in Tennessee. When we went into the lobby where the teams were, it looked like a lobby of WNBA players. We split our games in Tennessee (going 2-2) and I was proud of that. We went 22-12 and won the district championship.
-
Against Quotes
We are hopeful that the Supreme Court will agree that Tennessee cannot discriminate against people because of their point of view. If the state is going to give some people the opportunity to express their opinions on their license plates, it must allow people with opposing viewpoints the same opportunity.
-
Bail Quotes
We're playing for everybody in the Tennessee family. If the fans bail on us now, then the fans are not true Tennessee football fans. You can't win every single football game, but we do expect to. The fans expect to, and those are the expectations you deal with when you come to a school such as Tennessee.
-
Writing Quotes
This fear is one of the horrors of an author's life. Where does work come from? What chance, what small episode will start the chain of creation? I once wrote a story about a writer who could not write anymore, and my friend Tennessee Williams said, 'How could you dare write that story, it's the most frightening work I have ever read.' I was pretty well sunk while I was writing it.

Best Quotes
Mississippi and Tennessee offer some of the best deer hunting opportunities in the nation and are noted for having high quality state wildlife conservation and management programs. We are confident we can lay the groundwork in these two states for a program that expands to several other states in future years.
-
Behind Quotes
Obviously you want to start, but if I don't start I still have to prepare like I'm a starter because you never know what's going to happen, ... That's something I learned in college. During my junior year I was playing behind Mike Doss now with Indianapolis and Donnie Nickey now with Tennessee so I just had to stay focused and ready.
-
Ability Quotes
Obviously this was another lost opportunity for us to really make up some ground in the league. Tennessee made their shots and made plays down the stretch, and we didn't. We couldn't get our shots to drop. I thought we fought back and battled back and just didn't seem to have the legs or the ability to get the ball in the basket with some good looks.
-
Certain Quotes
I would say in places I've been like Tennessee and Nebraska, without studying it, it's about what it is. It's a contact sport, so there are going to be a certain number that won't finish because of injury. ... For some there are playing-time issues. Obviously, you get some that are away for the first time and decide this isn't what they want. Then you have some (dismissed).
-
Close Quotes
I don't know that there's been a year where there's been greater parity. Strength of schedule is something we do look for and it's important to the committee. The schedule Tennessee played this year and plays most years, however, as close as it was, we felt that Tennessee this year was a No. 2 seed.
-
Benefits Quotes
Businesses relying on those incentives may find them challenged, as in Cuno, by competitors or by departments of revenue unwilling to provide credits under statutes they deem unconstitutional. Either way, Tennessee businesses could potentially be deprived of the benefits provided by many longstanding incentive programs if the Cuno decision is not successfully challenged.
-
Athletes Quotes
I don't think (Pearl) had bad intentions whatsoever. I can't tell you what he was thinking, but I know Coach Pearl is excited about what's going on with Tennessee basketball, which he should be. I just don't think it's a good idea to have the student athletes in the crowd because it breaks down the entire mechanism for protecting the players.
-
Anybody Quotes
HatchieCoon is an Arkansas corporation first. Secondly, HatchieCoon has owned it's property in the St. Francis floodway for over 100 years. It received a patent in 1892 to it's lands. So if a long time citizen over there and it's members have been hunting over there for as long, if not longer than anybody else. The fact that some of its members live in Tennessee and some live in Arkansas is un material.

Closer Quotes
Keith's niece was doing makeup for the movie and invited me to the set. I fell in love with 'Our Very Own,' which comes out this fall, ... I told Keith I wanted to write a song for the movie. We got together in L.A. and in 20 minutes, it was done. I think 'Our Very Own' makes a great closer to 'Hearts in Mind.' The movie is set in the mid-1970s in Shelbyville, Tennessee during a massive depression that spread throughout rural America. It is a lovely study of that culture in that time. The words of the song say it all.
-
Accepting Quotes
I think we were agreed that he has already entered the canon of modern American drama among the immortals, along with Eugene O' Neill, Tennessee Williams, Arthur Miller. It's just delightful that he would even consider accepting our offer because his stature is so unique in world literature.
-
Came Quotes
I went on a few visits to the University of Mobile, to Lambuth University and Freed-Hardeman University in Tennessee and to St. Francis here in Indiana, ... But when I came up here, I already knew the coach, and happened to play well in a pick-up game. I really liked his system and the type of offense he wants to run. He's a good guy. Plus, it will give me a chance get away from home a little bit.
-
Beat Quotes
I think the race is clearly narrowing. If you look at the results in Tennessee and Virginia tonight and look at the results of the week before where I won in South Carolina and I beat Sen. Kerry in Oklahoma, this is becoming very focused, ... He's in front and I'm the underdog. We're going to have a tough contest here in Wisconsin but this is going to go on for weeks to come.
-
Confidence Quotes
Our feeling is if Matt was there at 3 and Tennessee was on the board, we would hope that phone would ring in about 15 seconds. That is the vote of confidence that we would be looking for. Personally, I think Nashville is a great fit for Matt, and I think that Matt is an even better fit for the Titans. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We'll just have to wait and see what happens.
-
Changing Quotes
It doesn't surprise me. Again, I'm not saying it doesn't surprise me because it is Tennessee. I am just not convinced that that sort of special treatment -- changing of grades, making sure kids are eligible as opposed to really educating them -- isn't going on at a lot more places than Tennessee. I don't think Tennessee is unique in that regard.

Bit Quotes
I thought last year they played us pretty well. They have looked pretty good this year. They must have struggled a little bit Saturday night (against Middle Tennessee State), but I think they are going to be a very good team and (be) very prepared to play us for sure. It's a game that we are going to have to be extremely focused. It's going to be another tough road game.
